Bradley Roberts got the idea last year when he discovered a fundraiser called "Clips for Kids," which raises funds for patients at Norton Children's Cancer Institute.

“I’ve been at the hospital before. I know what it feels like, so I want to help the kids who are at the hospital because I know what they feel like," Bradley says.

Bradley and his family organized a snack stand called "Bradley's Beverage Bonanza."

Though it started as a lemonade stand, the 7-year-old added additional food to pull in more customers. Last year, he collected more than $1,000 at the local YMCA in just two hours. This year, he hopes to raise $1,500.

Michelle Lenz, Norton's community coordinator, said the money goes a long way toward helping cancer patients.

“We pay for hotel stays for families; any basic need that they have, we'll help those patients and their families as well," she said.

Bradley’s mom, Tracey, said she couldn't be more proud.

“It’s teaching him that there’s a bigger world outside of ourselves. And he already knew that that was the right thing to do, to reach out and help those kids who need a little extra help," she said.
